We plan to run extended performance testing, simulating similar loads to the ones that PSI's production server has on a peak working day. This should allow us to avoid the problems that we had Testing PSI’s DHIS2 v40 upgrade is a collaborative effort between the DHIS2 global team and the DHIS2 country administrators. At the central level, the DHIS2 global team will conduct comprehensive performance tests to simulate user loads during common operations such as analytics generation, dashboard loading, web data capture and android synchronisation. This proactive approach aims to prevent issues similar to those encountered after the 2.38 upgrade. Still, it is important for country administrators to test the new version thoroughly, so we can address any potential issues before the planned upgrade.

What to Test in DHIS v40?
Below the list of things items that you need to focus your testing:
Capture App for tracker: the tracker capture app can be still be used, but it is now considered legacy. You should be using the new Capture App, and you should ensure that all your program rules fired as expected.
Dashboard loading time when they use Program Indicators: we are aware that some dashboards/ visualisations containing Program Indicators can severely slow the system. Test all your dashboards and visualisations that include Program Indicators. Inform us if you see a degradation on the time of loading when compared to the same dashboard/ visualisation in v2.38.
New user roles: we have implemented streamlined user roles for DHIS2 v40, in line to the revised authorities on that release. Please make sure that your users have the expected access to DHIS2 functionality.
